Ecosystem Updates

Geth v1.8.18 (Devcon Delay)

Better late than never. Geth's regular release didn't happen two weeks ago because of Devcon. This release is pretty minor, "focusing mostly on polishes, test speedups and a handful of new features." See More

Ethereum Engineering Effort

Péter Szilágyi has been working on a set of Ethereum Engineering Processes (EEPs) that he hopes will "lower the bar of entry for new participants" and "[reduce] friction" between them. The basic idea is that the EEPs will describe repetitive tasks, creating something of a standardized checklist for developers to follow. If something goes wrong or is less than ideal, developers can then revisit and revise an EEP rather than blame each other. See More

CBC Casper Draft White Paper

On November 5, 2018, Vlad Zamfir, Nate Rush, Aditya Asgaonkar, and Georgios Piliouras published a draft white paper entitled "Introducing the 'Minimal CBC Casper' Family of Consensus Protocols." In it, they break down the protocols in a way intended to be "introductory and educational." For those who still find it too dense, Nate Rush took to reddit to say the group is "working currently on creating resources to make the research much more consumable." See More

Raiden v0.13.0

Another week, another update for the Raiden testnet. This one, called Gypsy Mushroom, fixes bugs but also changes the database format. One added feature is pre-deployed contracts on the Kovan and Rinkeby testnets. See More
